Got four 8pts we passed this year to see what they do next year. One of them is a 5yr old and the other three are 4yr olds. Just two of us hunting on the ranch so we decided to see if they'll make a jump next year. Although one of us should have shot the 5yr old. The last pic is the 5yr old.

Some great 8s there. That top picture wide boy caught my eye for sure...

Maybe the 5 year old will be wider next year. Good looking bucks.

Yup that bladed dude on the top left may have took a dirt nap on my place. Nice bucks Stompy ! Sorry about the feeder. At least it was corn. About the cheapest thing we do hunting !

Beautiful

Be prime for taking next year

Dang nice 8's

Any second thoughts on passing of the top one?

No

Stompy score wise, where do you estimate the top two pic 8s?

Its amazing how much some antlers can change from one year to the next...Some go up, some go down, some stay the same. There are several variables that can and do affect the outcome.

Low 130's on the left, high 120's on the right.

Also had this beautiful broke up 10pt that I sure hope made it through season, but I haven't seen him since the first of December. He did the same thing thing last year, disappeared and showed back up after season. Fingers crossed

Man Stompy, feels like you're shorting the upper left buck by 5-8" to me and upper right one looks maybe 130ish.

Maybe, but I'm usually within a couple of inches on my deer.

Some good returning lettermen for next year Stompy! I'm headed back to Albany next week to get my season's last few weeks of pictures to see who we have coming back.

The fat man likes this. Good job on letting them grow. Hope you are well John.

Very nice bucks
